ed Florida Express-Travel
This winter.

At a meeting on Friday in New York
of the executive officers of the Penn
sylvania railroad and the Atlantic Coast
Line with reference to more ample ac-
commodation for the increasing Florida
business il was determined TO place at
once on the tain leaving New York at
9 p. NJ. additional Pullman accommo-
dation, as that heretofore existing was
found inadequate. The new equipment
for the limited express, TO be composed
entirely of Pullman sleepers. it was
found could not be furnished until next
season, but a contract has now been
closed with the Pullman Company to
furnish in taste and elegance the
finest outfit yet seen upon any
limited express, everything TO be
constructed new for the purpose.
New and powerful motive power
has been ordered expressly for this
train, which, it has been decided, shall
leave New York at the agreeable hour
of Q A. NJ, Just after breakfast; Phila-
delphia will be reached at about II
o'clock, Baltimore at / p. NJ, Wash
ington at 2 o'clock, arriving at Jackson
vile, Florida, the next afternoon at 4
o'clock, and in time to dine at 6 2. NJ.
at st. Augustine, where there has near
ly reached completion by far the most
magnificent hotel ever constructed in
the South. This hotel, to be called
the Ponce de Leon, is built of stone,
and entirely fireproof, at a cost Of two
millions OF dollars. Mr.. Flagler, OF
the Standard-Oil Company and vice.
president of the Jacksonville, Tampa
and Key West railway, is the enter
prising owner. Ii has also been de-
cided to supply parties of sixteen or
more that be made up a special car,
which, upon application, viii be fur
nished at any point in New England
or between there and Washington, and
which will go the entire distance to
Florida without change of any kind.
Mr.. II. Walters, of Baltimore, the
general manager of the Atlantic Coast
Line, was at the meeting in New York,
and he left for the South on Saturday.
There are good hote.s now all over
Florida, and the tourists distribute
themselves through the State. jack
sonville may not be as much Of a rem
devious for winter tourists as in former
years. The prospects for Florida were
never been than now. .-Baitimore Stul.

strangers go. The labor they perform
could be done in superior manner by
half their number of free men.

cup.
Monday afternoon Policeman Ben
nett's attention was attracted by the
curious antics of drunken man who
WAS on the street hatless and in his
stockings The officer arrested him
and found that he was on the verge of
dcIirium tronlCns. Upon reaching the
station-house the man was recognized
by one of the officers as j. f. Cook, an
employee of the Chesapeake and Ohio
railroad. Cook was placed in a cell
and remained perfectly quiet during
the night. Yesterday morning
breakfast was sent to him and some
time afterwards an officer entered the
cell to take him TO court, when he
discovered the floor covered with blood
and Cook bleeding from a jagged
woupd on his left forearm, which he
had inflicted upon himself with a
broken coffee-cup. The officer asked
Cook why he had cut himself. He re-
nl;ed that he was tired of living. The
ambulance was called, and the physi-
clan in charge (Dr. Rogers bound up
thc wound. No arteries were cut. lie

Mr.. Garueffin Town.

Mr.. II. Z. Garnett, of Henrico, the
young man bitten by mare supposed
by some to be mad, was in the city yes
terday. He was feeling very well, and
had no great uneasiness about the mat
ter.
Even if the mare had a tendency to
rabies, the instant cleansing and eau
terizing of the wound on Mr.. Garnetta
finger by the veterinary surgeon was
such treatment as would likely be sue
cessful in warding off trouble.

Mr.. ROYALS REPLY.
ANSWER TO THE RULE AND PLEA TO
THE INFORMATION.
He Confidently Claims the Law to be
Unconstitutional,
&C., &C, &c.

Mr.. William l.. Royal has filed his
answer 10 the rule against him for con-
tempt and the plea to the information
fled charging an intimidation of the
grand juries. Both are substantially
the same. The main points ae that it
is q privilege and immunity of every
citizen Of the United States to sue
whomsoever he pleases in any court
but particularly in the courts of the
United States, and that he is protected
in this right by the Constitution and
laws Of the United States, and particu-
larry by the fourteenth amendment.
DEBT LEGISLATION.
They deal very fully with the history
of the legislation affecting the debt
with the view Of showing that the act
defining barratry is an act passed to
impair the obligation of the States
contract, and is, therefore, unconstitu-
tiOnal, end that whoever acts under an
unconstitutional law, whether it be
court, grand jury, petit jury, Com
monwealth's attorney, sergeant, or
whoever he may be, acts without an
thority and is liable as a trespasser.
THE GIsr OF 1T.
The substance Of the paper is that
one man may sue another even though
he cannot maintain his action, and that
no one can prohibit him from asserting
this right. but that as in this case the
grand jury acted under an unconstitu
tional law, the defendant can maintain
his suit against them.
THE AUTHORITIES.
A Dispatch man asked Mr.. Royal
Yesterday morning what authorities he
relied Oh to show that the grand jurors
are liable to him.
Mr.. Royal replied: {" If the law on
which they have indicted me be really
unconstitutional, there can be no doubt
Of their liability. In Norton against
Shelby county, in 11S United States
Reports, the Supreme Court said, on
page 442, during its last term: 'An I'M
constitutional act is not law. 1t CON
fers no rights 1t imposes no duties
1t affords no protection. 1t creates no
office 1t is in legal contemplation as
inoperative as though it had never been
passed. In Yarbrough's case, 40 U.
S. r., the same court said, on page
654: If the statute prescribing the
offence for which Yarbrough and his
associates we're convicted was void, the
court which tried them was without
Jurisdiction In LiebOld's case further
said Mr.. RoyalD, 100 U. $. r., the same
court said, on page $40: AN unconsti-
tutional law is void, and is as no law
An offence created by it is not crime.
A conviction under it is not merely er-
roneous, but is illegal and void, and can
not be legal cause of imprisonment
In Royals case, III u. S. r., the same
court said, on page 249: 'The grand
Jurors who found the indictments, the
court in which it was returned, and by
whose order he was arrested, and the
officer who holds him in custody are ali
equally with individual citizens under
duty, from the discharge of which the
State could not release them, to respect
and obey the supreme law of the land
anything in the Constitution and laws
of any State to the contrary notwith-
standing"
And Mr.. Royal added: "The Con
stitution of the United States is that
supreme law Of the land"

The Missing Lady.

The disappearance Of Mrs. Walker
from her daughters home, on Tulip
street near Venable, remains mystery.
Her daughter cannot account for the
old lady's leaving, and the most per
sistent search of the city has failed to
disclose her Whereabouts. Her rela-
tives and friends have all been notified,
but they have seen nothing of ler.
There is a suspicion that Me may
have gone to the dock or river and
drowned herself; but there is no good
reason to suppose so. She was well
contented at her daughters; was in very
fair health, and it is stated that she left
without any expressions Of anger to-
wards any one.

A disease in one part Of the body will
eventually fill the whole body with dis
ease. Every year or two some part OF
the system grows weak and begins TO
decay. Such part should be removed
at once and new matter be allowed to
take its place. There's no need of cnt-
ting it out with the surgeons scalpel.
Purge away the old, diseased, and worn
out parts with Brandreth's Pills. Then
the new body will take care OF itself.
